Belt Squat

How to

Machine
  1. 1 Attach the belt at the hips and stand on the platform.
  2. 2 Squat down, keeping the torso upright.
  3. 3 Drive up through the whole foot.

Tips

  • The load hangs from the hips, so the spine carries almost nothing.
  • Hold the rails lightly for balance.
  • Useful when the back needs a break from squats.

Common mistakes

  • Leaning forward over the rails.
  • Letting the belt ride up to the waist.
  • Short reps.
